Hide

sometimes I hide

Hide from the feelings that hurt

Dissappointment

Grief

Anger

Distress

Angst

Fear

Pain

Despair

I run from them

To things far more toxic

Than just sitting with them

Letting them be

Letting the emotions come

And wash over me like a giant wave

And then

Eventually

pass

Which they always

But no

I anxiously panic and set myself  into action

And these actions

These remedies

Are far more disastrous than the actual causes

If only I could just bare it

If only I could sit

In stillness

In acceptance

In patience

And quietly wait

For the rainbow
